SpaceEye-T Continues its Journey
It’s been three months since SpaceEye-T began its journey around the world.
Thanks to its 25cm resolution, we’re not just seeing the Earth, we’re experiencing it in incredible detail. From 500km above, we can identify a lettering on a landmark, a unique rooftop structure, or even a single tree. However, this is just the beginning. 🙂
Stay tuned, every new visit brings a fresh perspective, and we can’t wait to share the next stunning view with you!
Hello City! This is SpaceEye-T.
We released new VVHR images from the Hello City series. In June, we collected especially remarkable view of cities worldwide.

🏗️Urban Planning with SpaceEye-T
SpaceEye-T’s 25cm imagery transforms satellite data into practical insight that helps planners devise more efficient and optimized urban strategies.
In the first two images of Melbourne, the highway network connecting the suburbs to the city center stands out — a key feature in low-density, car-oriented cities that helps ease traffic and support outward growth. When planning large-scale infrastructure, VVHR imagery allows for precise analysis of existing traffic patterns, surrounding terrain, and development density.
The next two images show construction and demolition sites in Dubai and Hamburg, revealing even fine details such as the condition of rebar and concrete. This level of clarity enables planners to monitor progress with accuracy — potential delays and other issues can be detected early without on-site visits, improving cost efficiency.
🏙️ Urban Growth with KOMPSAT
KOMPSAT imagery highlights two compelling cases of urban growth:
On the left, Gyeonggi Province in South Korea shows how rapid suburban expansion is reshaping the northern boundary of Seoul. In urban expansion task, it is essential to monitor large areas regularly and in a timely manner — KOMPSAT is an ideal tool for this purpose.
On the right, Oman presents a case where coastal desalination infrastructure is enabling urban life in an otherwise arid environment. KOMPSAT data plays a key role in such challenging regions, supporting critical infrastructure development through site selection, initial assessment, and environmental monitoring.

We are excited to unveil SpaceEye-T’s logo!
SpaceEye-T has just got its very first official logo. 😊 Its sleek and refined design reflects the precision behind our technology.
SI Analytics - SuperX
Last month, we unveiled SIA’s groundbreaking super-resolution technology, SuperX.
By doubling the native resolution of electro-optical imagery, SuperX empowers AI models to achieve unprecedented accuracy in critical applications such as object detection, segmentation, and classification.
And, we are excited to announce a strategic collaboration between SpaceEye-T and SuperX.
In the preview above, SpaceEye-T captures remarkable detail of building, ships, cars from South China Sea — all from an altitude of 500km. With the integration of SuperX, this imagery is elevated to an entirely new level of clarity and precision.
SuperX represents a significant leap forward in satellite imaging. For the first time, it is possible to reliably distinguish individuals in satellite photos, thanks to its advanced resolution enhancement capabilities. Developed to deliver superior image clarity, SuperX transforms standard electro-optical data into even high-definition visuals, unlocking new possibilities for analysis and decision-making.
